'While we always value alternate points of view, knowingly spreading disinformation during this global pandemic has deadly consequences.

Tritt has pointed out that Crosby sold his entire music catalog last year.

Travis Tritt (L) has criticized David Crosby (R) for announcing that he wants his music removed from Spotify in protest of the alleged COVID misinformation shared on Joe Rogan's podcast on the platform. When Spotify responded by standing by the former Fear Factor host, moves were made to take down Young's work. In January Young issued an ultimatum to Spotify to ditch Rogan's show or he would withdraw his music from the platform. 'I can't work…and streaming stole my record money …I have a family and a mortgage and I have to take care of them so it's my only option …I'm sure the others feel the same.'

On December 7, 2020, when news emerged of Dylan selling his music catalog, Crosby revealed plans to do the same, citing the ongoing COVID pandemic. 'Given our current inability to work live, this deal is a blessing for me and my family and I do believe these are the best people to do it with,' he said in a press release at the time. The sale included the works of the Byrds, Crosby & Nash, Crosby Stills & Nash, and Crosby Stills Nash & Young, per The Guardian. In March 2021, it was announced that Crosby had sold his catalog to Irving Azoff's Iconic Artists Group for an undisclosed sum. Since David Crosby is trending over demanding that his music be pulled from I’d like to point out that he sold his catalog last year and doesn’t own or control his music catalog anymore.- Travis Tritt February 3, 2022
